About the Item
A striking and sculptural architects Studio BBPR lounge chair, exemplifying the studio’s rationalist yet expressive approach to furniture and spatial design. Constructed in solid wood with a white painted finish, the chair features a distinctive slatted seat and backrest forming a continuous inclined plane, supported by angular, intersecting legs that emphasize structural clarity and visual rhythm.
The design reflects BBPR’s architectural language translated into furniture: rigorous geometry, exposed construction, and an almost brutalist sense of mass balanced by refined proportions. The stepped slats not only provide ergonomic comfort but also create a strong graphic presence, making the piece as much a functional object as a sculptural statement.
A rare and highly collectible example of Italian architectural furniture, ideal for collectors of BBPR, post-war Italian modernism, or museum-level interior design pieces.

Chair by Dom Hans van der Laan, Netherlands, 1960s
By Dom Hans van der Laan
Located in Utrecht, NL
This chair was originally designed by the Dutch Benedictine monk and architect, Dom Hans van der Laan for the Abbey Church of St. Benedictusberg located near the Dutch town of Vaals. This easy chair is in an untouched condition. It was made of pinewood and feature copper nails, giving this piece an understated, rustic look. The chair was entirely painted grey, including the nails. The main focus of van der Laan’s design was functionality and rationality, which is reflected in the openings on the sides and on the back that serves the purpose of joining multiple pieces together.
This chair is a beautiful piece of Dutch design history. Although Dom van der Laan left a small body of work behind, his legacy is highly regarded in the world of architecture. The St. Benedictusberg Abbey in Vaals and its interior quickly became his masterpiece at the age of 53.
